How do I install the Swiftui skill?

Run npx skillmds@latest add caglarbaranbora/swiftui in your terminal (requires Node.js), paste this page's agent-chat prompt into Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-connected agent, or download the SKILL.md file and copy it into your agent's skills directory.

Is Swiftui safe to use?

This skill has not completed SkillMD's automated safety review yet. SkillMD never runs a skill's scripts for you; review the SKILL.md before installing.

Which AI agents work with Swiftui?

This skill is tagged as working with Claude Code, Claude.ai, OpenAI Codex. SKILL.md is an open format, so most agents that read a skills directory can load it too.

Is Swiftui free to use?

Yes. Installing skills from SkillMD is free, and the skill stays under its author's original license.

Swiftui

Route SwiftUI implementation tasks to the correct Knowledge Contracts — view composition, view identity in ForEach/List, modifier order, NavigationStack/NavigationPath, NavigationSplitView, stack/spacing layout, safe area handling, lazy grids/stacks, GeometryReader pitfalls, @State/@Binding, the @Observable macro, @Environment values, and migrating legacy ObservableObject and NavigationView code. Use when writing or reviewing SwiftUI view code, structuring navigation, laying out a screen in code, choosing a state-management approach, modernising an older SwiftUI codebase, or debugging view-identity/layout bugs. This is implementation-code guidance (iOS 17+), not visual design — for what a screen should look like, see human-interface-guidelines. Triggers on SwiftUI, NavigationStack, NavigationSplitView, NavigationView, navigationViewStyle, @State, @Binding, @Observable, @Bindable, @ObservationIgnored, ObservableObject, @Published, @StateObject, @ObservedObject, @EnvironmentObject, environmentObject, @Environme

SwiftUI — Foundations Skill

Purpose

Route SwiftUI implementation-code tasks to the minimum required SwiftUI Knowledge Contracts.

Routing

Load only the contracts relevant to the task. All paths relative to knowledge/swiftui/.

Views -> view-composition.md, view-identity.md, modifier-order.md
Navigation -> navigation-stack.md, navigation-split-view.md
Layout -> stacks-and-spacing.md, safe-area.md, lazy-grids.md, geometry-reader-anti-pattern.md
State management -> state-and-binding.md, observable-macro.md, environment-values.md
Modernizing existing code -> observable-object-migration.md (ObservableObject, @Published, @StateObject, @ObservedObject, @EnvironmentObject), navigation-view-migration.md (NavigationView, navigationViewStyle, isActive:/tag:selection: NavigationLink)

Never load more than the contracts relevant to the specific question. For visual/UX design guidance (what a screen should look like, not how it's coded), route to skill.human-interface-guidelines.foundations instead.

Stop Conditions

Stop and report if the requested topic has no matching Knowledge Contract in knowledge/swiftui/ — do not guess or fall back to general knowledge. Animation and gesture questions route to skill.swiftui.interaction instead of being reported as a gap.

Previews — Excluded
Custom Layout protocol conformances — Excluded
Migrating a UIKit screen into SwiftUI, or hosting SwiftUI in UIKit — owned by uikit, in its uikit-interaction skill
Accessibility APIs — owned by accessibility
